Today, alpha build 0.0.3 has been released! Besides some quality-of-life improvements and smaller adjustments, this update mainly focuses on changes to the jury questioning process and the introduction of an automatic transcript feature.
Improvements and Fixes
Jury Questioning
- Jury questioning is no longer limited to four mandatory days where the player must question five potential jurors each day.
- Players can now schedule the questioning of jurors in the same manner as scheduling a meeting.
- This gives players complete freedom to decide when and how many potential jurors they wish to question.
- A questioning session can be scheduled anytime between the Pre-Trial Conference and the Jury Selection date.
- If the player schedules more than one potential juror for a single day, they will return to the case folder after each questioning session, allowing them to save in between.
- To accommodate the new system, the jury questioning assessment has been removed, and an overview of the selected jury has been added, which is shown after completing the selection.
- An automatic transcript feature has been introduced, enabling players to re-read dialogue from past meetings, court days, and the current scene. This is accessible within the case folder and during a scene.
- The Jury Pool tab within the case folder has been reworked for better usability and clarity.
- The dialog GUI now highlights which dialogue options have already been used and indicates if any unused dialogue remains within a topic or piece of evidence. When all available dialogue has been exhausted, the entry point automatically grays out and becomes unclickable. If new dialogue becomes available, the entry point reactivates, making it easy to spot and engage with the updated content.
- The rating GUI for jurors, which helps players take notes during the questioning process, is now accessible through the juror sheet button. It has been replaced by a better overview of known and unknown traits, along with a note about the juror.
- In this note, Case Creators can provide players with hints or other useful information, similar to the assessments on the person page. This note can also be accessed during juror questioning and selection within the rating GUI.
- The Legal Situation tab has been slightly adjusted to improve the display of compulsory and supporting arguments.
- Multiple typographical errors and other minor issues have been corrected.
